You can use my nf-next.git tree from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kaber/nf-next-2.6.git It contains the lock free counters, as well as smaller optimizations from Eric. The last timer patch I've seen missed the actual conversion to use mod_timer_pending(), but it would be great to have some numbers on the conntrack lock changes.
